My instructor was out of town last Thursday, so the other black belt students and I got to teach some of the classes that he usually leads. We’re accustomed to trading off with the Intermediate and Advanced classes, but this time I also got to teach the Beginner level class, which is nearly three times the size of the higher levels.

I had a lot of fun, and several people stopped to thank me for teaching or tell me I did a good job. I’m looking forward to more opportunities to teach. I think it suits me.
